Extract structure

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Can any body of you tell me what is an extract structure? If I'm not wrong The struture of a data source is called an extract structure? What is the main difference between a data source and extract structure.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

you are absolutely right. The extract structure is the structure of the data extracted by the system.

The datasource holds information about the extraction method (function module, view, table, domain fixed values...), the extract structure, the application component and you can maintain the datasource-structure by switching fields of the extract structure on/off, make 'em selection fields....
